Thursday Randomness:

>Kebabs from Beirut. Now instead of traveling half-way across the world, Washingtonians will be able to enjoy authentic kebabs from Beirut-based Kababji Grill. Kababji is set to open later this month with this being its first U.S. restaurant. The restaurant will be @ 1351 Connecticut Avenue, NW Washington, D.C. in the same building as Hello Cupcake. Get more info here.

>They say imitation is the highest compliment which is exactly what the popular restauranteur (pictured above) tried to convey in his costume of Julia Child on Halloween. Take a guess @ who this is??

>Don’t forget Food & Friends are selling Thanksgiving pies in efforts to provide nutritious, life-sustaining meals to children and adults battling HIV/AIDS, cancer and other life-challenging illnesses. There are five tasty flavors to choose from including Harvest Apple Crumb, Picture Perfect Pumpkin and Southern Pecan. Order online here, choose a flavor, choose a pick up location and pick up your pie on Tuesday, November 24, 2009. Take a Slice of Life.
